2.2 DESCRIPTION
The Patton Model 2124/2130 MicroBridge is an Ethernet Bridge that provides LAN extension when used in conjunction with a V.24 or EIA-530
DCE device, such as a DSU/CSU, NTU, or router . The Model 2124/2130
performs transparent Ethernet bridging and functions at the MAC level,
thus is transparent to higher level protocols such as TCP/IP, DECnet,
NETBIOS, and IPX network protocols. Only broadcast, multicast, or
frames set up for peered LAN are forwarded. The Model 2124/2130 is
802.3 Ethernet compliant and supports PPP Bridging Control Protocol
(RFC 1638) on the DTE side.

3.0 PPP OPERATIONAL BACKGROUND
PPP is a protocol used for multi-plexed transport over a point-to-point
link. PPP operates on all full duplex media, and is a symmetric peer-topeer protocol, which can be broken into three main components: 1. A
standard method to encapsulate datagrams over serial links; 2. A Link
Control Protocol (LCP) to establish, configure, and test the data-link connection; 3. A family of Network Control Protocols (NCPs) to establish and
configure different network layer protocols.
In order to establish communications over a point-to-point link, each end
of the PPP link must first announce its capabilities and agree on the
parameters of the link’s operation. This exchange is facilitated through
LCP Configure-Request packets.
Once the link has been established and optional facilities have been
negotiated, PPP will attempt to establish a network protocol. PPP will
use Network Control Protocol (NCP) to choose and configure one or
more network layer protocols. Once each of the network layer protocols
have been configured, datagrams from the established network layer
protocol can be sent over the link. The link will remain configured for
these communications until explicit LCP or NCP packets close the link
down, or until some external event occurs.
The PPP Bridging Control Protocol (BCP), defined in RFC 1638, configures and enables/disables the bridge protocol on both ends of the pointto-point link. BCP uses the same packet exchange mechanism as the
Link Control Protocol (LCP). BCP is a Network Control Protocol of PPP,
bridge packets may not be exchanged until PPP has reached the network layer protocol phase.
3.1 APPLICATIONS
In situations where a routed network requires connectivity to a remote
Ethernet network, the interface on a router can be configured as a PPP
IP Half Bridge. The serial line to the remote bridge functions as a Virtual
Ethernet interface, effectively extending the routers serial port connection to the remote network. The bridge device sends bridge packets
(BPDU's) to the router's serial interface. The router will receive the layer
three address information and will forward these packets based on its IP
address.
Figure 1 shows a typical Cisco router with a serial interface configured
as a PPP Half Bridge. The router serial interface uses a remote device
that supports PPP bridging to function as a node on the remote Ethernet
network. The serial interface on the Cisco will have an IP address on the
same Ethernet subnet as the bridge.

Figure 1.
Cisco router with serial interface, configured as PPP Half Bridge.
For example, the customer site is assigned the addresses 192.168.1.0/
24 through 192.168.1.1/24. The address 192.168.1.1/24 is also the
default gateway for the remote network. The above settings remove any
routing/forwarding intelligence from the CPE. The associated Cisco configuration will set serial interface (s0) to accommodate half bridging for
the above example.
Authentication is optional under PPP. In a point-to-point leased-line link,
incoming customer facilities are usually fixed in nature , therefore authentication is generally not required. If the foreign device requires authentication via PAP or CHAP, the PPP software will respond with default
Peer-ID consisting of the units Ethernet MAC address and a password
which consists of the unit’s Ethernet MAC address.
Some networking systems do not define network numbers in packets
sent out over a network. If a packet does not have a specific destination
network number, a router will assume that the packet is set up for the
local segment and will not forward it to any other sub-network. However,
in cases where two devices need to communicate over the wide-area,
bridging can be used to transport non-routable protocols.
Figure 2 illustrates transparent bridging between two routers over a
serial interface (s0). Bridging will occur between the two Ethernet Interfaces on Router A (e0 and e1) and the two Ethernet Interfaces on Router
B (e0 and e1).

5.0 CONFIGURATION
All configuration is done through software auto-detection for the Model
2124/2130. Once you have configured your mux or other equipment to
be connected to the 2124/2130, the unit is ready for operation. Observe
that the serial port of the 2124/2130 is configured as a DTE and must
connect to a DCE.
The LAN port also requires no configuration to connect to a 10BaseT
Ethernet.
Note
The V.24 and EIA-530 Interface is configured as a DTE. The
2124/2130 will transmit and receive data to and from the DCE,
based on the speed of the clocks received from the DCE. On the
LAN side interface, data is sent and received in burst mode at
10Mbps.
5.1 LED STATUS MONITORS
The 2124/2130 uses two LEDs on the Ethernet connection side. A green
LED indicates that link connection to the network is established. The yellow LED displays status codes (See section 5.1.2 for status code information).
Seven, low power, LEDs located on the top of the 2124/2130 case indicate POWER and V.24 or EIA-530 signal activity.
LAN side LEDs
The Model 2124/2130 features two LAN LEDs that monitor general operation status and the 10BaseT twisted pair link integrity. Figure 8 shows
the LEDs located at the rear of the Model 2124/2130. Following Figure 8
is a description of each LED function. Figure 8 shows the LEDs located
on the top of the Model 2124/2130.

LED Descriptions
Figure 8.
2124/2130 rear view
The status LED blinks yellow from one to ele v en times to indicate system
status. Each pulse pattern is separated by a 2 second "off " period.
Greater pulse patterns have higher priority (buffer saturation has greater
priority than an empty MAC table).
Valid system statuses are:
1 pulse=system status ok
2 pulses=No MAC entries in the MAC address table
3 pulses =Clear to send (CTS) or Carrier Detect (DCD) from
base unit are not asserted
4 pulses =IMRC2/IA buffer is saturated
5 pulses =WAN receive frame(s) too large
6 pulses =WAN receive frame(s) not Octet aligned
7 pulses =WAN receive frame(s) aborted
8 pulses =Detected WAN receive frame(s) with bad CRC
9 pulses =Detected LAN receive frame(s) too large
10 pulses =Detected LAN receive frame(s) not Octet aligned
11 pulses=Detected LAN receive frame(s) with bad CRC
After a status code is displayed eight times and the associated condition
is removed, the status code will no longer appear.
The link LED glows green to indicate link integrity on the 10BaseT
twisted pair line.
Power and DCE/DTE interface LEDs
Seven LEDs indicate POWER and DTE/DCE activity on the front of the
2124/2130.
